Christmas party fish and chips in West Kensington, cooked to order

It is a crowd-pleaser, which makes it a safe choice for a mixed team. Whether it’s christmas family parties and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches, we can cook pie and chips, gravy and haddock and chips for your guests.

For Christmas parties in West Kensington, the van needs a lit spot off the road, such as a car park, yard or drive. In London, access needs planning. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your Christmas party, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Why choose Christmas party fish and chips in West Kensington?

There is no venue to book or taxis to arrange, because the van comes to you.

We are booked for all kinds of occasions in West Kensington and nearby. Some of the most common are:

  • End-of-year club parties
  • Office Christmas parties
  • Festive family gatherings
  • Festive gatherings after Christmas

If you are organising a Christmas fair for a school like The Fulham Boys School, hot fish and chips goes down well.

Questions to ask before booking

  • The deposit and payment dates
  • A clear list of what’s included
  • Whether travel is included
  • Whether VAT is included

How to compare vans

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

FAQs for West Kensington

What about parking in West Kensington?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.

What’s the nearest station to West Kensington?

The closest is Kensington Olympia station, roughly 0.5 miles away.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

Do you come to West Kensington?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including West Kensington and the rest of Greater London. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

Do you take everything away?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

How long are you on site?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.

What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?

Early in the evening usually works best, before the drinks really flow. For lunchtime, we will work to your break.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Plan cover for the queue
  • Ensure the van and queue are well lit
  • Book as early as possible for December

For a work party, food early in the evening typically works best.

A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.

Space, access and the venue

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:

  • A route in without tight gates or low branches
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

As a London location, West Kensington is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

The process

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. An afternoon Christmas party in West Kensington can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 3:55pm; light the path to the van.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
